My memory may be failed, but I think the reason I have a Facebook account is because I found they had my name listed. To this day, I don't understand how websites get away with that. The first person who finds your name gets to claim it as their own via that "Is this you?" thing that they do. Some websites do the same thing for businesses, too. My Facebook is still hanging around for weeks like the one we just had. I have two webpages to post over there. They'll be tagged with a, "This is what I've been trying to tell everyone for fifteen years. I haven't been lying nor exaggerating about the situation." My "advocacy" moved to Twitter because it feels like there's a better chance of reaching a wider audience. I used to do the hashtags on Facebook, but it seemed a waste of time because I NEVER stumbled upon anything written by anyone else. It never felt like there was room for accidental meetings with others who might help further the expressing of your concerns (for lack of a better way to put it). So anyway...
